Ha none of us are qualified. Post away whatever you're thinking, it's valuable contribution for sure.

That hasn't stopped any of us so far. Jump in, another voice is always welcome!

Same but I still make them.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

1. Libba is GOD...enough said
2. Every time we enter fwd 50, I’m never expecting a goal. Shambles.
3. I love Wallis, I love his endeavour and he’s a bulldog thru and thru, but he shouldn’t be our best forward. That says where we are at.
I will never see #16 the same!!

1. We arent far away from bring a good side.
2. The gameday thread can certainly get bit BF cringe worthy haha
3. Bruce needs a to be dropped/given a break before we destroy him. Confidence is shot.
The curse is dead.

Pfft. If that was a qualifying metric none of us would be here.
Except twodogs, because his anecdotes override any KSC's.

1. Bad kicking is bad football and but for that we would have put the game to bed at quarter time
2. You can't keep a guy like Dixon out of the game for 4 quarters, we needed to respect this and counter when he worked his way into the game;
3. Bruce needs support

Welcome back mate - great to have you back on board.
If Naughton is selected this week does Bruce get one more or....
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

Naughton - off little pre-season and an enforced injury layoff - just can't play as the lone tall forward against Brisbane. He simply can't.

Instead of rushing players back from significant injuries, and risking their recovery and longer term contributions , can we make better use of the players who are perfectly fit (and not look like we are so desperate.)

When Naughton plays he will be good to go even if it is this week.
One thing our club does not do is rush players back from injury.
More of an In Bruges guy?

It's the only thing that saves Bruce in a way.
We just can't continue playing 1 KPF, it's too easy for the opposition to smother/double team and we have no other targets (well, Wallis, sure, but you know what I mean).

Absolutely we are way too predictable wth one go to option the enemy can pick us off all match.
